Campus mourns death of Patrick Boleyn-Fitzgerald

The Lawrence community is mourning the passing of Patrick Boleyn-Fitzgerald, who died Sunday, Sept. 4 at his home with his wife, children and two of his siblings by his side. Patrick was 50 years old.

Patrick was best known for his extremely successful career as a member of the philosophy department at Lawrence. He served as the Edward F. Mielke Professor of Ethics in Medicine, Science and Society and Associate Professor of Philosophy. His courses were immensely popular and he was highly respected for his intelligence, thoughtfulness and brilliant scholarship. His great concern for ethical and humane treatment of all persons was deeply admired by all who knew him.

Patrick’s family is very grateful to all who have supported them with seemingly unlimited help through his lengthy battle with kidney cancer.

A memorial service celebrating Patrick’s life will be held on campus at date to be determined. For more information, visit the Lawrence news blog.
